TheKolWiki:List of protected pages

From TheKolWiki

Administrators have the ability to "protect" pages or images so that they cannot be modified except by other admins (the link "Edit this page" is replaced by a link "View source" when viewed by non-admins). This ability is only to be used in limited circumstances.

Procedure

1. Protect the page, supplying a reason.
2. Add an approriate protection template (e.g. {{prot_high-use}} (or {{???}})
3. List pages you protect on TheKolWiki:List of protected pages; if it is protected due to a conflict, you may want to list all user names/IPs involved in the conflict.

   Please use {{article|ARTICLE NAME}} when listing a page at Wikipedia:Protected page, where ARTICLE NAME is the article or page you wish to protect.

4. Remove the protection (while supplying a reason) once the conflict has been resolved.
5. Remove the protection template from the top of an unprotected page and make mention of the removal in the edit summary.

If you protect a page, or find a protected page not listed here, please add it below, to the appropriate sections. Please also add a short description of ten words or less indicating why you protected it.
